Tender words from broken places

Someone asked me to write about my future,

in the hope I would start to let go of all that is keeping me stuck.

I tried…I really did.

I sat for a long time.

There were flickers of hope amidst the dark,

like sunlight peeping through the gap in the curtains,

Yet the page remained empty-

for now.

Maybe tomorrow will bring new strength

And I will save myself once again
